Chapter 137: The so-called righteous path is lonely
"Could it be that this is the rescuer invited by Baiyi?" Ren Shanhuai couldn't help but be a little excited, but Liu Yuanjun shook his head and said: "I don't know, so far, I can only resign myself to fate." ”
At this time, in Chu Qing'an's room in Yinyue Villa, Luo Baiyi told Chu Qing'an everything that had happened in the past few years, he thought that Chu Qing'an would be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot when he knew about it, and he panicked, but she was surprisingly calm, just bowed her head and said nothing, this situation is really not good.
Luo Baiyi silently poured a cup of tea, pushed it in front of Chu Qing'an's eyes, and said cautiously: "You, are you okay?" Don't worry, the old knife will be safe!"
In fact, Chu Qing'an was more or less expected such a result, and she knew even more than Luo Baiyi and the others, but she didn't expect that in just a few days, You Jinwen's martial arts had been so terrifying, and she thought that there would inevitably be a fierce battle in the future, and when she heard Luo Baiyi talking to her, she reacted.
"Oh, I'm fine. Chu Qing'an got up and found a pen and paper, and wrote with a pen. Luo Baiyi approached and asked, "What are you writing?" Chu Qing'an explained, "We must inform Senior Sister Liu in the city of the current situation, so that they don't worry. "Write the note, stuff it into the letterbox, go out, take out the pigeon whistle with him, summon the carrier pigeon, and send the letter out of the Silvermoon Villa.
Luo Baiyi stood behind her with her waist inserted and said with a smile: "It's still thoughtful, it seems that you, a blind woman, are still a little bit bit of a pound, and you won't drag the old knife back." ”
Chu Qing'an didn't pay attention to him, just looked back and glared, Luo Baiyi obediently closed his mouth and went back to his room. Everything was arranged, Chu Qing'an returned to the wing room without saying a word, closed the door tightly, took out the "Jishi Green Bag" in her arms, and studied the use of Xueyan Xiuyun Grass, which was the only thing she could do for Dao Xueke at present.
Speaking of the Tilting Cloud Mansion, Yan Ruxi Fang arrived in front of the mansion at this time, and before he got off the horse, a hearty laugh came from the mansion: "It turned out to be Elder Yan, I haven't seen him for a long time, I haven't greeted him from afar, please forgive me!"
Yan Ruxi also turned over and dismounted, handed over the reins to the attendants in the house and led them to the stable, Yan Ruxi arched his hands and clasped his fists and saluted: "Lord Su, I haven't seen you for a long time, Ruxi is polite." ”
Looking up, I saw a young man who looked like a weak scholar walking in front of him, wearing coarse cloth clothes, sickly, about 20 years old, who could become the prefect of a prefecture at a young age, and he was also talented and had outstanding political achievements. If it weren't for the many officials who got up and followed, no one would have thought that this person was Lord Yin of the Tilting Cloud Mansion.
Su Lizhi walked forward with a smile and took Yan Ruxi's hand, the two of them are friends who have forgotten their years and have a deep relationship, so they regard each other as confidants and have nothing to talk about. Hand in hand into the inner hall of the palace, Su Lizhi sat in the middle, and Yan Ruxi sat in the first place on the left hand.
"I don't know why Elder Yan came this time?" Su Lizhi lightly rolled up his sleeves, came to Yan Ruxi's side, personally poured wine for him, and held the wine glass with both hands to salute Yan Ruxi. Yan Ruxi took the wine glass and drank it all, and whispered in Su Lizhi's ear: "This matter is very important, please withdraw from the left and right before you can say it clearly." ”
Su Lizhi glanced at the attendant guards, waved his sleeves slightly, and said lightly, "You all retreat." A guard clenched his fists and said, "My lord, but your safety?" "Ridiculous, this mansion is talking about some old things with old friends, what is there to worry about safety?" Su Lizhi reprimanded sharply, and the guards retreated together and closed the door tightly.
Su Lizhi patted Yan Ruxi's hand, smiled and said, "Brother, can you say it now?" Yan Ruxi looked outside the door, although there was no one, but he was still extremely vigilant and asked in a low voice: "I don't know why, since yesterday, the imperial court suddenly ordered that all cities should be closed and forbidden to enter and exit?"
Su Lizhi was slightly stunned when he heard this, stood up, tidied up his sleeves, and said with a long sigh: "I don't know why my brother suddenly talked about this?"
"Sure enough, it's an order from the imperial court?" Although Yan Ruxi still kept smiling, there was clearly some doubt and doubt hidden in that smile. Su Lizhi paced back and forth in the lobby, and said slowly: "Yes, it is indeed an order from the imperial court. The dignified prince of Tanglin was almost assassinated in his own house, what a ridiculous event. The imperial court blockaded the city precisely to take this opportunity to catch the rebellious party in one fell swoop and correct the law on the spot, so that the government and the opposition could feel at ease. ”
Yan Ruxi laughed loudly, and was about to leave with his sleeves, so Su Lizhi grabbed his sleeve and deliberately asked: "How long has my brother been here, why are you in such a hurry, and you are about to leave?" Yan Ruxi turned his back to him and said, "If the confidant refuses to tell the truth, is there still something to drink this wine?"
"What do you mean by that?" both of them pretended to be confused, although they were confidants and friends, they were still testing each other and refused to let go. Yan Ruxi took a step back and said calmly: "If you want to arrest someone, how can you wait until this time? This is obviously premeditated, and the discerning person has already seen it, why does Lord Su still pretend to be here?"
When Su Lizhi heard this, he smiled guiltily: "It's really the fault of the younger brother, and I hope that the elder brother Haihan." Don't hide it from my brother, this blockade of the city is not an order of the saint, but in fact an edict issued by the prince through the mouth of the saint. ”
Yan Ruxi's doubts increased when he heard this, and he was even more puzzled: "Why is this? Could it be that the prince only remembered to arrest the assassin after many days?"
"No, no. Su Lizhi looked confident, as if he knew all the ins and outs of this matter, he couldn't help but frown, and explained: "If it is changed to the governor of other state capitals, Yin will not know, but it is a coincidence that only the younger brother I know about it." ”
Su Lizhi walked to the door, put his ear on the door, and there was no movement outside the door, then he quickly returned to Yan Ruxi's side, and said in a low voice: "Brother is a person from the rivers and lakes, and he should know a person named Dao Xueke. ”
"Yes, I think so. Yan Ruxi listened attentively.
"This person's comrades have recently appeared near my Qianyun Mansion, and the prince has ordered that once they enter the city, the city gate must be closed, sealed for three days, and delayed for time, so as to give the prince enough time to carry out his plan, and after three days, the city can be opened. The so-called blockade of all cities is just to cooperate with the Qianyun Mansion to put on a show. ”
After that, Su Lizhi toasted Yan Ruxi with another glass of wine, and said with a half-mocking smile: "The younger brother has told the elder brother everything he can say, I wonder if this glass of wine can still be drunk now?" Yan Ruxi then laughed, turned around and took the wine glass and drank it all again, two glasses of strong wine went down, and Yan Ruxi's face was already drunk.
The two sat facing each other, Yan Ruxi shook his wine glass and couldn't help asking: "Master Su is willing to tell the truth of this matter to Brother Yu, I am really grateful, and I deserve to drink three thousand cups." ”
Just when Yan Ruxi wanted to drink another drink, he was held down by Su Lizhi's wrist and stopped: "It's better for my brother to return to the villa as soon as possible to deal with important matters, don't get drunk in my Tilting Cloud Mansion, won't you fall into the mouth?"
Yan Ruxi put his face close to three points, and the smile gradually became weird, and it was a little cold: "Master Su is thoughtful, and he must have known the purpose of my trip well. Su Lizhi also echoed and smiled: "It's not my ability, it's really the prince's far-reaching strategy." ”
"But the lord has informed the foolish brother of all the arrangements of the prince, if the prince knows, wouldn't it be a catastrophe?" Yan Ruxi's face became more and more gloomy, and he changed his kind appearance in the past, Su Lizhi saw it in his eyes, without fear, and still laughed and said: "You and I both work for the prince, and we are in the same family, so why can't we say it clearly?
With that, both of them burst out laughing. The laughter stopped abruptly, Yan Ruxi put the wine glass firmly on the table beside him, bowed his hand, and brushed his sleeves away. Su Lizhi looked at his distant back, just smiled slightly, and there was no trace of emotion on his pale face.
The city gate was opened again, but the people were still trapped in the city, and only Yan Ruxi left the city alone.
Turning back to Yinyue Villa, he asked his disciples to inform Luo Baiyi and Chu Qing'an, telling them to be calm and not to be impatient, saying that Yan Ruxi had negotiated with Su Lizhi, and Su Lizhi was willing to send a personal favor, and after waiting for three days, he would open the city and let them leave in the middle of the night when there was no one. What Su Lizhi and Yan Ruxi thought about was to release the people one day later, thus creating the illusion of deliberately releasing Liu Yuanjun and others.
When he first learned about this arrangement, Luo Baiyi flew a pigeon and passed a book, informing Liu Yuanjun and the three of them about the matter, telling them to prepare and leave the city in three days. But when the people saw that they could get out of the city, they had to wait another three days, and they were no longer attached.
However, Chu Qing'an, thinking that there were still three days to go, and he must take this opportunity to refine the elixir. And at this time, in the Yiye Sword Gate, You Jinwen had already made all the preparations, and the hero post was also released, everything was ready, and he just had to force the sword snowman to tell the secret of the Jade Buddha.
Today's You Jinwen has changed into a plain white brocade robe, embroidered with an over-the-shoulder golden dragon, and draped in a scarlet robe, the inside is pitch black, and the snow-white hair is also tied into a bun, wearing a crown of purple and gold phoenix wings, and there is a flickering gold seal between the eyebrows. Although he tried his best to suppress the appearance of Tie Qing's complexion, he couldn't hide the blackened Yin Tang and the evil aura on his face.
The dressed You Jinwen was in stark contrast to the sword snowman who was tied to a wooden stake, wearing a tattered bloody clothes, with a disheveled head, scarred, covered in blood, and dying. You Jinwen slowly walked into the dungeon, and the disciple in charge of torturing Dao Xueke saw You Jinwen coming, and immediately got up and bowed: "Welcome to the Supreme." ”
You Jinwen glanced at the two disciples and asked casually, "How is the question?"
"Back to the Supreme, I haven't asked yet. The two disciples lowered their heads, knowing that they were not doing well, for fear of being punished by You Jinwen, and their voices were as small as mosquito buzzing. Who knew that You Jinwen didn't blame them, but smiled and said, "You guys have worked hard." With that, he patted them on the shoulder.
The two of them only picked up a life, raised their heads a little excitedly, and You Jinwen said with a smile: "Go out, this seat will talk to him alone." "Yes!" The two of them took the order to retreat, passing by You Jinwen before he took two steps, a sudden gust of wind hit, and the two of them turned their heads in shock, only to see You Jinwen's face was blue, his eyes were red, revealing his slender fangs and nails.
The two disciples broke their courage and knelt on the ground weakly, and before they could scream, they had already slapped You Jinwen on their heads, but You Jinwen's palms turned, and his nails pierced deeply into the disciple's skull, inhaling all his essence and strength into his body and taking it for himself. The black qi churned, and soon enveloped the bodies of the two disciples.
The trembling flesh gradually blackened and withered, and soon only a layer of dark charcoal-like skin attached to the two white bones remained. You Jinwen clenched his palms into fists again, and the two corpses disappeared in an instant. You Jinwen collected his internal strength, licked his lips, put away his nails and fangs, his face gradually turned white, and he returned to the appearance of an ordinary person.
"Something incompetent!" You Jinwen cursed softly, turning to scan the extremely narrow dungeon, which was full of different types of torture instruments: handcuffs, iron chains, leather whips, bamboo sticks, soldering irons, and tiger chairs. The two arms of the knife snowman were firmly tied to the wooden stake by the cold iron locks, and the whole person was almost half-hanging, and his consciousness was already blurred.
You Jinwen stepped forward slowly, raised his right hand, a ball of white gas turned into a lotus flower blooming in the palm of his hand, turned his palm and pushed forward, slowly sticking to Dao Xueke's chest, the white lotus turned into ripples and spread, spreading from his chest to every inch of skin on his body, and Dao Xueke was shrouded in white light in the blink of an eye.
"You can't die. You Jinwen's smile was a little hideous, his left hand was slowly raised, and he slapped it on the back of his right hand, the internal force poured out, and Dao Xueke's face was also a lot ruddy, and some small wounds even began to heal. You Jinwen's skill has already reached its peak, and he will accept it as soon as he says it, without delay, and the white light will dissipate in an instant.
Dao Xueke's fingers moved lightly, and he gradually became conscious. Slowly opened the eyelids that weighed like a thousand catties, and the vision in front of him turned from blurry to clear. But as soon as he woke up, his neck was choked by You Jinwen, You Jinwen pinched Dao Xueke's chin and asked him to raise his head and look at himself: "You finally woke up." Why, are you still stubborn and refuse to tell the mystery of the Jade Buddha?"
Knife Snowman coughed violently, and fine dust rippled into his mouth and nose. Seeing You Jinwen's persistent look, Dao Xueke couldn't help laughing.
But his smile angered You Jinwen: "Don't you think I dare not kill you!" Now I am about to be the supreme martial arts and command the world, the Jade Buddha is just a tool for me, my martial arts have long been superb, but the Jade Buddha is a recognized supreme token of martial arts, if you still refuse to say it, I will destroy the Jade Buddha, so that none of you can get it!"
"Then you can destroy the Jade Buddha...... Why do you need to act in front of me......" Dao Xueke suddenly broke free of You Jinwen's hand, shook his wet hair, and revealed his embarrassed face, with a smile on his face.
You Jinwen didn't eat his set, and deliberately leaned into his ear and said, "In two days, I will hold a martial arts conference, and your friends will also reunite with you at that time." If you don't tell the secret of the Jade Buddha, I will cut your flesh one by one in front of your beloved Qing'an, as well as your Senior Sister Liu, and your brothers and sisters of the Ten Ghost Hall, I will let you see with your own eyes that they will die one by one because of you. ”
"Heheheha......" You Jinwen laughed wildly to himself, but Dao Xueke did not let go, but said in a very relaxed tone: "You Jinwen...... A wicked man is his own hell...... Your master is a good example of this......"
"What are you talking about!" You Jinwen heard Dao Xueke talk about Chu Yunshan, his face changed drastically, to be honest, he never believed in retribution and reincarnation, but he had never slept in the past few days, and nightmares were frequent, and he dreamed that Chu Yunshan was covered in blood, standing in front of him, and wanted to pounce on himself for his life.
You Jinwen wanted to catch Dao Xueke again, but he stopped in mid-air, dropped his arms one after another, brushed his sleeves and left, just when he was about to walk out of the dungeon, he suddenly looked back and looked at Dao Xueke: "Dao Xueke! I want you to kneel at my feet like a dog in front of the martial arts heroes!
When the door closed, Dao Xueke fell into endless darkness again, his eyes looked out of the small window blankly, Dao Xueke's mind always recalled what Ying Wujian said to himself, Xiao Wuxian, Yiye Hong, Chu Yunshan, these people he was once familiar with, turned out to be his enemies, and now that he has lost all his martial arts, he can't do anything, let alone talk about revenge.
At this time, far north of the Qianyun Mansion and in the col south of the Linzhou Mansion, Rao Mengli's phantom soul dementor has made great progress, this set of martial arts is haunting, the moves are deadly, the yin wind is everywhere, and the fists and palms are staggered, as if there is a ghost crying wolf.
And Yun Yanyu was still binding Rao Mengli to practice, the two stood on the rare dry land between the swamps, Yun Yanyu kicked out a stone the size of a head with his toes, turned over and picked up the stone, and turned around to throw it, in order to make the strength more real, Yun Yanyu also added a chapter after it.
Seeing that the stone was flying rapidly, Rao Mengli flew up to meet it in a hurry, and actually used his chest to hit the flying stone, but in the next moment, the stone completely passed through Rao Mengli's body, and the body turned into a burst of black smoke and dissipated, and disappeared without a trace.
Yun Yanyu smiled slightly and expressed his appreciation. And when the stone was about to land, Rao Mengli's figure gathered from all directions, condensed into a human form, and with a backhand palm, the sharp palm wind whistled towards the stone, and there was no response. The next moment, the stone burst out of it, turned into powder, and drifted away in the wind.
Rao Mengli's toes touched the ground, falling lightly, the black robe was windless, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot. Behind him, there was a cloud of smoke and rain in the palm wind: "Yes, you have learned the last form of the Phantom Dementor, the ghost is mortal." This move can turn reality into reality, turn fiction into reality, surprise and shock the enemy's heart. Your understanding is indeed good. ”
Rao Mengli heard this, but there was no trace of joy, Mu Ne raised his pale right hand, and there was a black line faintly hidden in his palm, Rao Mengli looked back and asked, "How long will it take for me to become successful." Yun Yanyu said truthfully: "It won't be long." In a day or two, your martial arts will be even higher than those decent masters, and that's the magic of that ghostly dementor!"
